I believe there is still a lot of water to flow over the dam before any changes occur to landmen regulations. In fact, I'm not sure there have ever been any regulations. Of course, the danger with government intervention is the possibility of making a bad situation worse. The best scenario for us is to keep monitoring the dialog.

Thanks Blu'. Agreed regarding minimum standards for landmen being a good idea but, my inquiry isn't pertaining to that particular aspect. First....the notice / article I read said it is Ohio law that landmen negotiating leases that would be considered lawful / legally binding would have to hold a valid real estate license (not being a lawyer myself and only as I understand what I've read anyway.) Extrapolating from that point I wonder if some (perhaps not very scrupulous) E & P / Driller /…
Thanks Blu'. Agreed regarding minimum standards for landmen being a good idea but, my inquiry isn't pertaining to that particular aspect. First....the notice / article I read said it is Ohio law that landmen negotiating leases that would be considered lawful / legally binding would have to hold a valid real estate license (not being a lawyer myself and only as I understand what I've read anyway.) Extrapolating from that point I wonder if some (perhaps not very scrupulous) E & P / Driller / Developer would not honor a lease that wasn't 'brokered' by a licensed real estate individual / entity. In other words my question is : If a landowner / mineral owner (who does not have a real estate license) would act as his own landman, would that landowner / mineral owner be at risk of having to go to court and sue to have his negotiated lease honored / end up having to settle for something less. My thinking may seem cynical to some (even perhaps many) but reading about all of the lessors winding up in the courts battling with their lessees over terms / conditions / compensation / other short comings causes me to think that way. What's your opinion on my inquiry / perspectives Blu' ? ? Most of the landmen with who…tag:gomarcellusshale.com,2018-10-03:2274639:Comment:7867952018-10-03T21:22:14.242ZBluflamehttps://gomarcellusshale.com/profile/JeffreyMiller
<p> Most of the landmen with whom I've come into contact can barely tie their shoes, let alone pass a real estate licensing exam. Seriously, though, the subject matter in real estate exams should be modified for O&G landmen. While some items are applicable, many are not plus there are special requirements for the landmen. For example, they need to be knowledgeable about the O&G industry. I mean, how many real estate agents know anything about shale wells?!?</p>

Not very knowledgeable at all Mr. Bill - trying to get knowledgeable however. We all need to keep our eyes and ears open as things really seemed slanted against the landowner / mineral owners looking for a square deal !
